If you want to help your dog to adjust
happily to the human rules we all have to live by,
you’re in the right place.
If you have an dog, cat or other
companion with issues that keep
your lives from being as wonderful as they could be,
you’re in the right place.
If you want your dog to be treated with
gentleness and respect, so understanding can occur
without coercion, you’re in the right place.
We are dedicated to helping forge connections in
this life—with people, with animals (dogs, cats,
and all other nonhumans!), and with “all
our relations”. Please feel free to browse our site,
read some of our friends’ stories, and check our
schedule!
But
before you do, let’s talk a little about
what Tellington TTouch is all about.
TTouch is a method of working with
dogs, cats, and other pets to make
improvements in their lives and in the
lives of the people who live with them. As a way of strengthening the human animal bond, it is
superb.
It’s also been used to provide
holistic training for dogs and other animal companions
the world over, and people have come to
TTouch practitioners for help with a
variety of issues, including leash
pulling,
fear of
thunder, fear of storms, fear of loud
noises, separation anxiety, and
aggression.
Tellington Touch uses positive
training, providing direction, instead of
correction, to our animal friends.
The
TTouch method has been compared to
behavior modification because it helps to
cause changes in the way animals deal with
their worlds.
It provides a new channel for
communicating with our dogs and other animals through
touch, and it has been likened to animal
communication because it promotes
understanding between our species.
Is it dog training?
It can be, but it is about so much
more than that.
Sometimes we use clicker training
to enhance our work, although the way in
which we use this positive training method
stresses the importance of our
relationship with animals rather than
training in the strictest sense.
Do
we train cats?
Cats would perhaps take exception
to those words, but we work to help lives
with cats be a more sharing experience for
both people and the cats they serve.
Animal
training can be a rewarding part of the
TTouch work, but the focus, again, is more
on allowing the relationship between
species strengthen in a way that enhances
the lives of both the human and the
animal.
What
 animals
do we work with? When we started this work, we thought
it would be
dogs and cats.
In actual fact, we work with any
animal that
has become a companion to a human, and
that has included rabbits, guinea pigs,
ferrets, hamsters, snakes, mice, rats,
monkeys, and birds of all sorts.
